This fun and refreshing light-pink wine offers effusive red-cherry and pistachio aromas and tutti-frutti flavors that seem to defy its apparently bone-dry balance.

2021 Petit Verdot / 90 Points / James Suckling
A dense and rich nose of blackberry jam, roasted coffee beans, bramble berries and sweet spices. The palate is full-bodied with firm tannins and acidity, displaying notes of roasted blood plums, figs, violets and blueberry compote. Drink or hold.
2015 Petite Sirah / 90 Pts / International Wine Review
The Petite Sirah offers lively, fresh aromas and flavors of spicy boysenberry, black cherry and herbs. It’s silky on the attack with a chewy density on a fruit driven, richly flavored palate. Finishes with firm, round but somewhat dry tannins.
2017 Petite Sirah / 94 Points / Wine Enthusiast

Seductive oak-spice aromas and a rich but gentle palate make this full-bodied wine compelling and delicious. Cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg and cigar-box scents lead to ripe blueberry and mocha flavors and relatively soft tannins.
2010 Cabernet Sauvignon / 94 points / International Wine Review
Medium dark garnet. This is by far our favorite of the 2008-2010 Library Reserve Trio. It has an enticing, multifaceted nose of cassis, sweet oak, and a hint of forest floor. The palate has a velvet texture and is densely flavored and elegant with fine-grained tannins. Still a youthful wine with a long life ahead.
2016 Block Three /96 Pts / WineReviewOnline
His 2016 Block Three is yet another stunning Cab from Mitch, on a par with more famous wineries in neighboring Napa. This vintage is rich and dense, with aromas of blackberry and spice, a note of graphite and beautifully integrated tannins. A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
2016 Cabernet / 92 points / International Wine Review
More elegant than blockbuster, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is an excellent wine. The bouquet is redolent of dark cassis complemented by notes of earth and underbrush. There’s a lovely, silky texture to the mouth filling palate and nice integration of blackberry fruit and toasted oak. The tannins are still youthful but ripe. A wine that will only improve with a couple of years bottle age.
